Agroban opens Swedish ripening facility

A groban has become the first Ecuadorean banana company to invest in overseas ripening facilities with the opening of Agroban Nordic in Helsingborg, Sweden at the end of 2017. The move allows the company to distribute its own-branded bananas directly in the European market. The ripener has already received its first container of fruit from the María María farm, located in the province of Los Ríos.
